Prehistoric
Summerhall Festival - Demonstration Room
Theatre

A punk gig about our civil liberties. A play about discovering our capacity to
resist – with an original soundtrack played live. In Brisbane, Australia,
1979, Prehistoric follows Deb, Nick, Pete and Rachel as they meet at a
gig, start a band and find out – the hard way – about how their town stays
so quiet and boring. Based on first-hand accounts of living, playing music
and making history under the notoriously corrupt and brutal
Bjelke-Petersen government, Prehistoric offers an iconoclastic and
hilarious take on the pivotal punk moment that still echoes today.
